I first heard about this idyllic sculpture park two years ago from a Brazilian journalist who lived in New York, and kept it on the back of my mind until Sunday, August 1st. Grounds for Sculpture is a relatively small park in Hamilton, NJ, not too far from Princeton. It has over 250 sculptures by world-renowned artists, an incredibly good restaurant, a cafeteria, and indoor exhibits. It's full of good surprises. Definitely a trip worth taking.

"There were fewer screaming, crying fans in pleated skirts this time, but Paul McCartney delighted a New York City audience on Wednesday (7/15/09) with a performance on the roof of the Ed Sullivan Theater."

It opened to the public yesterday. The High Line is an old elevated railway turned into a garden, with plenty of seating space and great views of the Meatpacking District. Althought not yet complete, it is beautiful and worth visiting.

Mission Statement

A list of places to go and things to do, with a very loose price-rating and minimal description, that is to serve as future reference to myself and to friends and friends's friends (locals and tourists alike). The objective of most of my outings is to always find something: a restaurant, a bar, or even a book, that is "cheap and fabulous". Of course not a lot is cheap, or fabulous, but there's a lot of fun to be had without breaking the bank.
